Re:“Shared libraries are not a good thing in general” by TeMPOraL on Sunday May 02, 2021 @05:03AM (#27013544)
Thanks! I forgot all about it, in particular about '$ORIGIN' thing! Yes, I'm happy to see the person building the executable has at least some control over this.

It's actually relevant to a project I'm working on (proprietary, Windows/Linux, uses shared libraries for both mandatory components and optional plugins) - I'm gonna check if and how we're setting RPATH for the Linux builds, it might need some tweaking.
